                I think he meant they aren't rs reps. Look to be more like style 5 reps. Also a 40 sidewall tire would fit a lot better

                  Thx for the replay man, Yah I checked that online, the guy has them as rs on his add which confused me. to be honest It does not matter to me cuz they are not the genuine once!, I saw them 2 days ago online and contacted the guy and he still have them . so I wanna make sure they fit on my E30 before I pick them up.


                  Your right about the tire size I might change them later!.

                      so your saying I should pass?



                      One gentleman answered my question and said I should be fine with these wheels , and I appreciate his respond, just need to get more info if somebody has the same wheels specs, and you guys are trying to figure out what type these wheels are!!:crazy:. if I do not call the guy tomorrow and pick them up, he might let them go, I do not car if they are bbs or not, I love the way they look. and will put BMW sticker instead!!!!.

                        They will work.
                        Super Rs is just a different type of BBS rs wheel, these are replicas of those, which is fine since you don't care if they are real BBS or not.
                        Go ahead and buy them if you like them.

                          Oh finally somebody understood me and got to the bottom line!. thank you sir. I will post some pics on when I get them. It is not that I don't car, but it is hard to find a real BBS set here in Ottawa and if so they will be over priced , don't know why!. however thank you all for the help. Peace \\//.

                            I'm not so sure they'll fit.

                            so did you get them and do they fit?
                            I'd be skeptical because the BBS RS reps in general don't have much room for brake caliper clearance.

                            Also ET28 will be a very close fit for the front. Your tires may rub the shocks if they are any wider than 205. I guess you can always put the ET25 in front and get a spacer for the rears.

                            The BBS RS reps that fit for sure are the ESMs with ET15. Even the 16x8 with ET20 needs a small spacer for the front to clear stock brakes. The Konig Remembers at 16x7 ET20 fit without mod however.
